Russian singer Iosif Kobzon, infamous for his hatred towards Ukraine and persona non grata in the country, and former Party of Regions member Yan Tabachnyk jointly own a huge beach of 7.5 ha at Dnipro river.

This was announced by Kyiv city council deputy, member of Samopomich faction Anna Sandalova on her Facebook page, Censor.NET reports.

She wrote that she found out about 'Pryberezhnyi' beach park at the Dnipro river bank, which is somehow owned by Yan Tabachnyk and Iosif Kobzon. She says the issue has been discussed for several weeks now among the deputies.

According to Sandalova, they have elaborated a plan and attempt to return the property to community. Second step would be finding funds for cleaning up the territory and setting a park there with a clean beach, a recreation area, several neat cafes, bike lanes, and nature, Sandalova wrote.
